Spring Recital 2009

Our Spring Recital 2009 is approaching. Cape Cod Dance Center will present the comic ballet La Fille Mal Gardée or better known in English under its original name The Ballet of Straw. The ballet will be preceded by contemporary dances.

The recital will be held at the Lawrence School on Friday May 29th at 7pm & Saturday May 30th at 12pm.

La Fille mal gardée has been kept alive for well over two centuries. The appealing simplicity and familiarity of the story line has lent it its popularity. The ballet is part of the repertoire of many ballet companies all over the world.

Giselle

On Friday, May 23rd and Saturday, May 24th of Memorial Day Weekend, the Cape Cod Dance Center presented the epic ballet Giselle to the music of Adolphe Adams at the Marstons Mills East Auditorium on Osterville/West Barnstable Road. Students and alumnae from the dance center were joined on stage by guest dancers, Cynthia Pigeons and Guillaume Gosa, to present the ballet classic that has charmed audiences around the world for over a century.

Giselle is the crowning achievement of the romantic era of ballet, and the most poetic of all nineteenth-century full-length works. Giselle tells the tale of young women who died before their wedding day but whose love of dancing keeps them from eternal rest.

Chopin’s

Les Sylphides


Les Sylphides is famous as the first "abstract" classical ballet without a narrative structure or defined characters. Les Sylphides is composed of a suite of dances in the romantic atmosphere of a moonlit park. The sylphides, (magical figures, half woman, half ghost), dance in search of the ideal. The corps de ballet is on stage almost throughout, used in decorative groups when not actually dancing. The ballet is in the repertory of nearly every company in the world offering a great challenge for the dancers at level 5 & 6 and surely a delight for our audience.
Only students from ballet 5 & 6 will participate in this ballet.


& Offenbach’s
